Ballad songs that are easy to sing at karaoke: recommended masterpieces and popular tracks (71–80)
I’ll be by your side.Maeda Nobuteru
Released in 1993 as Wataru Maeda’s fifth single in total.
The song was used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Information Space J,” and its lyrics—reexamining a stagnant romance and reaffirming feelings for a loved one—resonate deeply in this outstanding ballad.
It’s also a song that’s very comfortable to sing.
AnniversaryKinKi Kids
This song, with its striking exotic intro, was released as a single in 2004 and is a supreme love ballad that sings of straightforward love.
The lyrics, which say that even ordinary days are precious, seem to remind us once again of what happiness truly is.
For men with an average vocal range, the notes are within reach, and above all, many will find the melody line simple and easy to sing.
Its relaxed ballad tempo also makes it easier to perform, letting you check each pitch and rhythm as you sing.
ParadiseNiziU
This is the fifth single overall by the idol group NiziU, released in March 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for the Toho-distributed film Doraemon the Movie: Nobita’s Sky Utopia.
The song has a slightly mellow feel, and the vocal melody spans a somewhat higher range, so it might be a bit challenging to casually hum along.
However, the melody itself is very straightforward and easy to remember, and the lyrics fit the melody naturally without feeling forced.
In that sense, I thought it could be a recommended track even for those who aren’t confident singers.
If you pay attention to where the notes are held and stopped—that is, the placement of rests—and sing accordingly, it should sound nice.
If you’re interested, listen closely to the original and study it.
DiarySEKAI NO OWARI
“Diary,” a song released in 2022 and used as the theme for the Netflix series The Future Diary.
This track, which sings of being in love, captivates listeners not only with its vocals but also with its beautiful piano accompaniment.
As a ballad, the melody is easy to follow, and the range doesn’t vary drastically, making it relatively easy to sing.
However, since it’s sung in a comparatively high register for men, those with lower voices may need to adjust the key.
If you’re looking to perform a memorable ballad, be sure to consider choosing this song.
That’s all there is to it.Marushii
Marcy is a three-piece rock band whose lyrics, woven with striking phrases that capture delicate emotional nuances, seize fans’ hearts and never let go.
Their digital single “Tada Sore Dake no Koto ga sa” was featured as an insert song in episode 2 of ABEMA’s “Koisuru Weekend Homestay 2023 Spring ~Sweet Orange Memory~.” Its gradually building structure and the chorus’s beautiful melodic line make it a song you’ll want to belt out at karaoke.
It’s a sentimental number that conjures vivid scenes from its heartrending lyrics.
